And the winner is...Shayna, lucky comment #41! Thank you to everyone who entered! Check back often for more fun giveaways!

Louise has been busy and has a lot of new releases! I'll be sharing all of them with you but and the first one I have to feature is My Sweet Family. I love the soft colors and the cool citrus shades she used. The blues go so well with it and it all kinda makes evokes a comfy cozy feeling to me. Did you see the banner, it's a new style for Louise and the scallops give it a dainty feel, but the colors mean you can still use it with masculine photos.

Here is a closer look at the gorgeous papers. The variety of patterns is just awesome, so much good stuff to work with!

And here are is a preview of the coordinating word art kit. The pops of color are really fun.

There's also a template, great for quickly scrapping those memories! Check out how I used it, below.

As you can see, it was easy for me to adapt the template to fit four photos instead of just two. I used papers from My Sweet Family, a couple elements from it like the orange heart and blue flower button, and "adventurous" from the word art kit. But most of the elements are from another recent release from Louise, Happy Camper. I love how I was able to combine the two for a great page!

This next page is a first for me, as in it's the first time I've done a double page layout digitally. To help me take this baby step along the progression of my skills as a digiscrapper I used a template from Simple Scrapper. I treated myself to a Premium Membership a couple months ago and it's one of the perks of belonging.

Here is one more, can you tell I had such a good time creating with My Sweet Family that it was hard to stop? This one is my favorite because it looks a lot like a paper layout I might do. Plus, it has three of my current favorite pictures.

So there you have it, three layouts using the same kit and I think three pretty different looks. The first is very digi-scrappy with all its layers. The second has a clean minimalist feel to it and the last is reminicent of a traditional paper layout down to the "ribbon" wrapped photo. Can't tell you how many times I've done

Giveaway!

Guess what I get to give the whole bundle away to one of you!!! You read that right, the whole thing not just the kit but also the word art and the template! I'm so excited.
